Narcissism is a form of self-regard that is overly focused on the individual. A person with narcissism is incapable of feeling empathy for others, and needs to mask their fragile self-esteem with overconfidence. In extreme cases, narcissism can be the result of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, a diagnosable condition, but not always. There are ways to identify a person with narcissism when you interact with one. Watching the way a person talks and interacts with others can help you identify whether or not they are a person with narcissism.

Narcissistic personality disorder — one of several types of personality disorders — is a mental condition in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance, a deep need for excessive attention and admiration, troubled relationships, and a lack of empathy for others. But behind this mask of extreme confidence lies a fragile self-esteem that's vulnerable to the slightest criticism.

A narcissistic personality disorder causes problems in many areas of life, such as relationships, work, school or financial affairs. People with narcissistic personality disorder may be generally unhappy and disappointed when they're not given the special favors or admiration they believe they deserve. They may find their relationships unfulfilling, and others may not enjoy being around them.

Narcissism is a personality disorder characterized by arrogance, a sense of importance, and a desire to gain even at the expense of others. Its name means "selfishness" or "selfishness," and it is defined as being selfish or self-centered. This name is attributed to a Greek myth, according to which Narxos was a symbol of beauty who fell head over heels in love with himself when he saw his face in the sea.

Additionally, narcissism is a social and/or cultural issue. The trait theory, which is applied in numerous subjective personality tests, is one factor. It is one of the three members of the Dark Triad, along with psychopathy and Machiavellianism. Except for healthy narcissism, narcissism is typically an issue in a person's interactions with themselves or others. It's important to understand the distinction between narcissism and the idea of egocentrism.
